A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display panel according to the present invention includes following steps. First, an upper substrate and a lower substrate are provided in a step (a). Next, the space between the upper substrate and the lower substrate is filled with the above-described liquid crystalline medium. Then, voltage is applied to the upper substrate and the lower substrate, and an energy source is provided in a step (c). As a result, the polymerizable monomers are polymerized into alignment polymers. For example, the energy source is an ultraviolet source, a heat source or a combination thereof.

A liquid crystal display panel manufactured by above-described method includes the upper substrate, the lower substrate and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the upper substrate and the lower substrate. The liquid crystal layer includes the above-described liquid crystal molecules and alignment polymers. The alignment polymers are polymerized by the polymerizable monomers through polymerization reactions and formed on at least one of the upper substrate and the lower substrate. The alignment polymers are for aligning the liquid crystal molecules or enabling the liquid crystal molecules to form pre-tilt angles.

A preferred embodiment is provided as follow for illustrating the composition, mixture ratio and manufacturing conditions of the liquid crystalline medium. And then, the properties of the liquid crystalline medium and the optical properties of the liquid crystal display panel are further analyzed.

The liquid crystalline medium of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes the polymerizable monomers and the liquid crystal molecules including chlorine. The liquid crystalline medium includes 99.7% liquid crystal molecules and 0.3% polymerizable monomers. The liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystalline medium include the compounds [2-1], [2-2], [2-3], [2-4] and [2-5] selected from the compound 2, the compounds [3-1], [3-2], [3-3], [4-1] and [4-2] selected from the compound 3 or 4, and the compounds [5-1] and [5-2] selected from the compound 5. The polymerizable monomers include the compound [P-1].

A control group (i.e. another liquid crystal medium comprising the same polymerizable monomers yet the liquid crystal molecules without chlorine) is used as a standard for comparison.

After analyzing the properties of the liquid crystalline medium of the present embodiment and the control group, it is found that these two liquid crystalline media are similar in the optical anisotropy, dielectric anisotropy, nematic-isotropic phase-transition temperature (Tni), etc. However, rotational viscosity of the liquid crystalline medium of the present embodiment is only 77.4 mPa·s, which is far below the rotational viscosity of the control group, 141 mPa·s. Therefore, the liquid crystalline medium of the present embodiment has less resistance when rotating, which can reduce the response time.

Then, the space between the two substrates is filled with the above-described liquid crystalline medium, and a voltage of 6.4 J is applied between the two substrates. After the liquid crystal molecules and the polymerizable monomers are arranged according to the electric field, an ultraviolet source is used for polymerizing the monomers into alignment polymers. The liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment is accomplished accordingly. In addition, the liquid crystal display pane of the control group is manufactured by the same method, except for that the liquid crystalline medium has no chlorine.

Optical performance experiments are performed on the liquid crystal display panels of the present embodiment and the control group.

After different values of voltage are applied to the liquid crystal display panels, the turn-on time (T_(on)), which is time that the liquid crystal molecules need to rotate from the initial position to the predetermined position, is measured and illustrated in FIG. 1. Furthermore, after stop applying voltage, the turn-off time (T_(off)), that is time the liquid crystal molecules need to return to the original position, is measured as well and illustrated in FIG. 2.

Please refer to FIG. 1. When the voltage is equal to 5.5V, the response time (i.e. T_(on)) that the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment need to rotate from the initial position to the predetermined position is equal to that of the control group: When the voltage is greater than 5.5V, the response time (i.e. T_(on)) that the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment need to rotate from the initial position to the predetermined position is much less than that of the control group. Please refer to FIG. 2. No matter how much voltage is applied, the response time (i.e. T_(off)) that the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment need to rotate back to the original position is less than that of the control group. When the liquid crystal display panel of the control group is driven by the voltage of 5.5V, the turn-on time (T_(on)) is 10.8 ms, and the turn-off time (T_(off)) is 9.2 ms. When the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment is driven by the voltage of 5.5V, the turn-on time (T_(on)) is 10.8 ms as well, but the turn-off time (T_(off)) is only 7.8 ms.

Furthermore, the contrast ratio of the liquid crystal display panel of the preferred embodiment is 3443, which is similar to 3609, the contrast value of the liquid crystal display panel of the control group. Therefore, when the optical properties remain the same, the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment has shorter response time. The optical performance of the liquid crystal panel is improved effectively.

In the liquid crystalline medium, the liquid crystal display panel using the same, and the method for manufacturing the liquid crystal display panel according to the above embodiment, the polymerizable monomers and the liquid crystal molecule including chlorine have lower viscosity. Therefore, the resistance that the liquid crystal molecules have when rotating is less, and the response time is shorter. It is proofed from the above embodiment that the liquid crystalline medium of the present embodiment has much lower viscosity than the conventional liquid crystalline medium. The liquid crystal panel using the liquid crystalline of the present embodiment has the same optical properties but shorter response time. Therefore, the optical performance of the liquid crystal display panel of the present embodiment is better.

While the invention has been described by way of example and in terms of a preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited thereto. On the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements and procedures, and the scope of the appended claims therefore should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar arrangements and procedures.
